  A grain of truth here as one who follows a few groups.

  Q: How many Internet mail list members does it take to change a light 
  bulb? 

  A: 1,331: 

  One to change the light bulb and to post to the mail list that the 
  light bulb has been changed. 

  14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the 
  light bulb could have been changed differently. 

  Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. 

  27 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light 
  bulbs. 

  53 to flame the spell checkers. 

  156 to write to the list administrator complaining about the light 
  bulb discussion and its inappropriateness to this mail list. 

  41 to correct spelling in the spelling/grammar flames. 

  109 to post that this list is not about light bulbs and to please take 
  this email exchange to alt.lite.bulb. 

  203 to demand that cross-posting to alt.grammar, alt.spelling, and 
  alt.punctuation about changing light bulbs be stopped. 

  111 to defend the posting to this list saying that we all use light 
  bulbs and therefore the posts **are** relevant to this mail list. 

  306 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where 
  to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for 
  this technique, and what brands are faulty. 

  27 to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs. 

  14 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly, and to post 
  corrected URLs. 

  Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant 
  to this list, which makes light bulbs relevant to this list. 

  33 to concatenate all posts to date, then quote them, including all 
  headers and footers, and then add "Me Too." 

  12 to post to the list that they are unsubscribing because they cannot 
  handle the light bulb controversy. 

  19 to quote the "Me Too's" to say, "Me Three." 

  Four to suggest that posters request the light bulb FAQ. 

  One to propose new alt.change.lite.bulb newsgroup. 

  47 to say this is just what alt.smoking.pipes was meant for, leave it 
  here. 

  143 votes for alt.light.bulb.
